08' Nytro RTX 40th Anniversary - Stretched
We will see if anyone is around here this summer and has any suggestions? I picked up a pair of GYTR clicker skis shocks from Travis to replace the Floats on my Nytro project. What is the best tool out there for adjusting the springs? I have been looking at these but need to confirm the tab on the tool and the notch width on the shock tension rings? Thanks, G.B.

Flat screw driver and hammer to release the jamb nut and then hang the suspension and turn the spring and cut by hand. Not tool needed unless the threads are all messed up and even that with the tool will not work well. But I like tools, and I like them both but tools that dont work just take up valuable space in my toolbox.

Cool, thanks Tom for saving me some money!

Cool, let us know how it works. Setting the ride height, shock dampening and rebound is way down on my list of things to do right now. If I have trouble with the screw driver and hammer method, I will be back looking for a tool. Thx G.B.

Just don’t tighten them much till you get settings right. All the tools suck with ice and snow all over everything. Will say the one stain posted is only one that I haven’t bent on tight ones and that’s with shock out of sled. Just make sure it has right end. Link goes to a round end not hook like you need.
